...I really really meant to post a lot sooner. I really did. But right now, life is screwing me repeatedly. And I can't really sit down and actually type a long thought-out post without quitting after two minutes and go play something that doesn't require thought.

...I'll post soon! Or try to...

[Weasel Overlord]

[Mystic_clown]

Sorry I've been gone so long.

Otaki
-------------------------------------
I walked along the road, the little kids not far behind.
“Do you like Kaia?” Sakura asked all of a sudden.
“What!?” I cried, blushing.
“Well, your face goes all red when you’re around her.”
“Are you going to marry her?” Melissa asked innocently.
“Otaki likes Kaia! Otaki likes Kaia!” chanted Michael, dancing about.
“So what if I do like her?” I asked, grabbing Michael by the shoulder, “what are you going to do about it?” Before Michael could answer, I felt a cold wave go through my body. It wasn’t a cold night, yet I felt like shivering. I shuddered.
“What’s wrong?” Sakura asked. I shook the feeling off.
“It’s nothing,” I replied, “let’s go home.” But it wasn’t nothing. I felt something cold, evil. I didn’t know what it meant.

Dayube
-----------------------
I felt the mist surround me. I could feel the power of darkness flow though me. I felt as if I couldn’t be stopped.
“Now,” Daiyoko said, “It’s time I taught you guys to fly or you won’t be much use to me.” The others and me two stood up.
“Follow me,” Daiyoko instructed.
“Yes my queen,” I replied. I didn’t know why I said it. I just said it. Daiyoko looked back at me and smiled.
“My queen. I like the sound of that.” Said Daiyoko, smiling, “Now I know I’m really going to like you.”

What Otaki's feeling is the darkness being emitted by Daiyoko and her Correct Souls, since they're all in the same place.

[Elemental Seribii]

MM probably wants to kill me...

Waike - Pyro God
----------------------
Yes, we'll play by ear. It'll be easier in a way, though perhaps harder as well. Too many factors to count in to give him a definate answer right now. Nearer the end would be much easier.

I knew they all would ask questions, because that's how humans were. They liked asking questions. Or rather, questions that didn't question too much. Something like that.

Besides, I know that in some way, we are all alike. That's why they're my Souls. Nothing is perfect, right?

We continued to talk, though the subject of my ideals was eventually let go. Besides, weren't ideals supposed to be ideal? I could try to work things out when it was needed.

"So..." I froze at the beginning of my sentence. We were in a backstreet, Denny had said it was a shortcut back to his Dorm. He almost instantly noticed my pause, and began questioning me.

"What's wrong? Waike?" He protested when I pulled him into the nearest bright light, the source of it a window from some room in the building above. "Tell me!"

"Don't move." I ordered. "And don't be afraid."
"What? Why would I be afraid?" He continued to insist that I should tell him what was going on.

A black cat slunk out from the shadows, its eyes a bright, eerie green. However, we both knew this wasn't some stray, the cat was nearly the size of a small car and it didn't seem to have fur, it was more of a shadowy covering. I heard Denny choke back more words, and winced when the cat grew slightly.

"Get out of here!" I shouted, throwing a flame at the shadow. Not fearing the fire so much as the light it brought, the cat scrambled back. Its hiss was unearthly, and hurt my ears a bit. However, this seemed to work, and it escaped to whatever darkness it had come out of.

"Let's get back onto the main road, alright? Before it brings more friends back with it." I tried to smile to make him feel better, and Denny nodded.

"What was that?" When we were back on the sidewalk of a more used road, I felt better. Especially with all of the streetlights.
"Hm? Oh, probably just an amateur Demon. Looked-"
"A Demon? Really?" Denny had shaken off his shock, and now prefered to be curious. I coughed.
"As I was saying, only looked like a Tormentic to me. I'm sure they won't bother us for a while."

However, it was a bit unnerving. I knew of Demons, but, I hadn't ever actually been forced to fight one.

I hope it won't cause too much of a problem.
--------------------

Wishful thinking, silly Waike. Will post for Phil when I'm not brain-dead no more. Sowwy I took so very long. Almost a month.
Also sorry if I screwed something up. X___x;

[Vulpix.ck87]

Sorry about the lack of posting - I would if I could but I can't *looks earnest and slightly shifty* Yeah, well, I have actually been revising like hell (it's a first, i'll tell you that ), and speaking of which Im supposed to be right now, got a math AS level in the morning ><. My exams finish in about 10 days methinks, so I promise i'll post sometime then. After all the book burning festivals and stuff..
Well, i gotta go now, so.. *kicks weasel overlord in the shins and steals her shifty eyes* Mwuahahaa ... Ok, i couldn't find a shifty eye smilie, but look!! They've got a cannon/rocket/blastamajig!!!! :rocket:

Yours Sincerely, Vulpix.ck

[Mew Master]

Denny Roth ~ M ~ Correct Soul of Waike
--------------------------------

We walked along, the shiver of the Demon's presense rolling down my spine. I hadn't been afraid, more like startled at a cat the size of a Voltzwagon.

"A Demon.." I muttered. In this day and Age I didn't think Demons could exsist anymore. Guess I was wrong.

-----------------------------

X_X BAH! Writer's block finally set in...that and the last time I was going to post something the computer ZAPPED it! >.<!

Anyway.... waiting for stuff to happen.. *remembers D&D character quote*

"When I get mad, stuff happens." -OZ

XD

Later!

[Anjana's Halo]

Well, since everyone seems to have writer's block, I'll post the second part to my previous post which was omitted because A) I thought it might make the post too long to be read comfortably, and B) I was really hoping someone else could come up with a better idea. [Halo Muse to the rescue! *crash*]


Feiyou: Arch Angel of Light
************************
I sighed and stretched my arms above my head in the late afternoon sunlight. Knowing that Haile wasn't coming with us, and would remain behind in safety of her own free will, filled me with a sense of relief. No matter what special powers she possessed, she was still just a little girl, vulnerable and not completely aware of everything that was happening.

"So, Fei, what do we do now?" asked Shun. We were all in his backyard. Everyone had brought out their wings, displaying quite a gallery of wing designs.

"Oh, yes," I said snapping out of my trance. "Where were we?"

"I think we're up to the part where we start flying," offered Phil.

"Ah, yes...um...Well..." I stopped.

"You have no clue, do you?" said Tetsuhiko. I nodded my head.

"I'm sorry, I really have no idea how to explain it. Flying has always been as natural as breathing to me-"

"Then let's just try flying, y'anno, however we feel is right," Testuhiko suggested. "I mean, I figure we should already know how to use these things." Shun and Phil agreed to try, and indeed, everyone just seemed to flap their wings and immediately be in the air. I smiled, glad that was out of the way without too much of a disaster on my part. We quickly set flight toward Labruey.
~*~
"Is that it?" asked Shun. I looked down. Directly below us, where Labruey and Kyria should be, was a mass of dark mist.

"What is it?" Asked Phil.

"A Demonic. A creature born of the cosmos' negative energy. Just stay close to me, and you should be fine. We'll just go in to retrieve Labruey and help my sister. But remember, if something happens, you each have powers that you can call to your aid. Alright, let's go!" I dove downward toward where I felt Labruey the strongest. As we desended into the fog, the connection I felt between my Correct Souls and I became weaker and weaker until I landed, and I could barely sense anything.

"Is everyone okay?" I asked, then looked around when no one answered. "Phil? Shun? Tetsuhiko?" No reply. They were lost. I had lost them!

"No!" I yelled screaming at myself. I began cursing in any language I knew, which was all of them. How could I be failing so miserably? I had lost them! They were alone inside this cursed fog, and I had no way of locating them! I began crying through my rage, hot tears on my cheeks. I should give up right now. It was hopeless. It was-

I stopped. Hopeless? How could I even think that? Hope and faith were part of the reason I was born, my gifts to the world after the light illuminated the earth. Was it the Demonic making me think that way, or my own doubts? Either way, I needed to find my Correct Souls, and get them out.

Light wrapped around my body, forming into a scabbard at my side. Grasping the hilt, I pulled out a magnificent sword, gleaming metal projecting from a silver hilt set with a tear-shaped blue stone. Inscribe on the metal was a simple phrase, "I come not to bring peace, but a sword."

Luz, the sword of light.

The fog retreated from this source of illumination, cautiously keeping its distance. I paid no mind and I concentrated, searching for that warm comforting light...There! I headed into the fog toward the light of my Correct Soul. I just prayed that, if it was Labruey I first found, the others would be okay.
******************

Wheee! I think that was bad, but I hope it gives someone an idea on writing.

In other news, I have Gravitation! *does happy Shuichi dance* Eiri Yuki is so hot on a big projection screen. [Happy dancing]

[Bulbasaur4]

Lyia
~ Correct Soul of Kyria - F ~

I had no idea of what the two brothers were talking about... but whatever it was, it made my heart ache. I didn't want Genki to be sad... why was he crying? who was Kaori? It overwhelmed me... and I couldn't help but suddenly get the sickening feeling inside that I wasn't meant to be here.

Then it happened when I touched Genki....

A fog... with eyes... and an evil grin... bringing despair...

I quickly gave out a cry, speaking of my vision without much control over it. Genki and Kanli felt it too, and suddenly we were covered in a huge, thickening fog.
"What is this...?" I shouted, but Genki and Kanli suddenly weren't there.
"Where... where are you?" I shouted, but nothing but my own echo occured.

I felt a chill of lonelyness suddenly come to me, and with that feeling of lonelyness came dispair. I was alone... maybe it was a trick... maybe it was some thing as a sign to say that Genki and I would never work.
Yes... never work... you were never meant to be. You should just curl up and... rest...
I made a motion to sit down, when suddenly I stood up.
No!
This was a trick... the whole feeling, some thing was here. The fog was alive... I could feel it like I could feel hot breath upon my back. Some how the fog was alive....
Genki had a girlfriend before... named Kaori... she is gone, you're only a replacement for some thing you can never fill...
the voice that wasn't mine filled my head, and suddenly I felt a wave of anger over come my senses.
"NOOO!" With that, my voice became a shrill, almost an angry high-pitched note and with that suddenly water formed out of no where in front of me, into the form of an angry wolf with glowing white eyes. It let out a howl to match my scream, and I noticed that the fog seemed to curl away from it, as if in pain.
I stopped my scream, but then noticed that the wolf seemed to shrink away... and with that came the voice..
... never meant to be-
"SHUT UP!!!! " I cried out, and with that the wolf grew again and seemed to lunge at the darkness. The wolf was made out of pure water... but it was alive, everytime my shouts became-
Song.
Thus I understood one of my powers, and I began to sing...

In the darkness we're all lost,
With nothing for us to find,
But doubts can become unnerving frost,
To freeze our simple mind,

But I won't be tricked by simple things,
I won't give up with such ease,
I've found some thing good brings,
I've found my own cool breeze,
....

I continued to sing, making up my own song as I sang... my watery wolf snarling at the darkness as it seemed to shrink away. I followed the wolf as well... letting it become my guide through the dark.



( Just letting you know, if the fog demon is attacked enough... eventually it will return to it's original, gigiantic shape forcibly. )

Haile
~ The Being Reincarnation/ F ~

Haile gazed at the window, and a soft smile came to her face.
"I wonder if they'll mind if I have some more ice cream!" Haile said excitedly, gazing about with a look of sheer innocence as she came to the freezer. However, before she could open it suddenly she felt a whisper...
"What do you want?" Haile said softly to herself, but the whisper in her mind continued. Frowning slightly, Haile walked away and went to the door and opened it. Nothing was there... but the whisper continued.
"Alright, I'll come outside but I have to go right back in and wait for Phil, Feiyou and the others." Haile commented, easily going outside where suddenly Haile tilted her head to the side, recognizing the figure before her.

It was the dark lady....
" Doyokai?" Haile said, and instantly the dark woman's eyes seemed to shift from ease to a slight sense of shock which she quickly tried to erase.
"Yes... that is my name..." then suddenly a sense of calm came over her.
"I'm sure that's what Feiyou told you, the little Angel friend you were with." She seemed to say it to herself, as she glanced down at the girl.
"Why don't you come with me? We can have fun while Feiyou is away, and then when he comes back we'll have a party..." Doyokai whispered, an eerie grin upon her face.
Haile noticed that there were other kids around her, watching with slight confusion.
" I can't... " Haile said, shaking her head. Her eyes seemed to grow a bit stern as she shook her head.
"I can't go with you, I'll change."
Doyokai laughed, " You'll come with me."
With that she grabbed Haile by the wrist, and easily opened her wings wide. Turning to her Correct Souls, she gave a wry smile.
"Let's go some where nice... where little Feiyou can come to the rescue to only meet his death."

With that she opened her wings and flew upwards into the sky... her Correct Souls following, as she held Haile.
" No! I can't... nooo! Please! I don't want to change! I don't want to change!! PHIL!!! " Haile gave a sharp shout... only to have her mouth covered soon afterward.

Of course, Doyokai only had grabbed Haile to lure Feiyou to her... with out her siblings coming with him. She had no idea what Haile was... of course she could have had a slight tingling sensation of rememberance, but most anything would ignore that.

Feiyou... help... before it's too late...
Haile thought, frowning ...


Because with every ray of light, there is a shadow...





(There you go Ali! I hope you don't mind... )

[Ali]

I don't mind at all! 8D

Labruey/F/8 - Correct Soul of Feiyou
-------------------
As Labruey ran, she suddenly knew she was in trouble.

Big trouble.

The fog filled Labruey's vision, unnatural and thick. She slowed down and shivered, from both cold and fear. Frightened, she looked back over her shoulder, for some sign of Ethuil or Kyria.

They were nowhere to be seen.

Coming to a full stop, she turned around in the direction she last saw the two.

"Ethuil? Kyria?" Labruey called out hopefully. "Are you there?"

There was no answer.

Fear began to fill her. And because she was scared, getting cold, and while definately a Correct Soul, Labruey was still eight years old. So she began to do the only thing she could think of.

She cried.

Great big hiccoughing sobs broke from her as tears ran from her eyes. Labruey franticly wiped her eyes as she cried, unable to stop the flow of tears, and she began running heedlessly through the fog. While she was running and crying, she gave a scream as she tripped and fell to the cold pavement. Labruey laid there, blood welling from her scracthes and weeping as the fog seemed to press closer around her and thoughts flashed through her mind.

I'm such a crybaby! There's no way I could be a Correct Soul! How stupid was I to leave home?! Now I'm all by myself... And there's no one to take care of me... I'm all... alone...

Suddenly Labruey heard it. A voice, in the fog, singing...

"In the darkness we're all lost,
With nothing for us to find,
But doubts can become unnerving frost,
To freeze our simple mind,

But I won't be tricked by simple things,
I won't give up with such ease,
I've found some thing good brings,
I've found my own cool breeze..."

The thoughts in her head grew fainter. Labruey slowly stood up, her cheeks still wet, but her eyes now dry.

I'm not worthless at all, Labruey thought, her face determined. I am a Correct Soul too! With that, she opened her mouth and began to vocalize with the song, and slowly began to dance...

Doyokai - Arch Angel of Darkness
-------------------
"Doyokai?" the child asked. Doyokai give a slight start. How could this human child know who she was? Unless...

"I'm sure that's what Feiyou told you, the little Angel friend you were with..." she murmered, half outloud and half to herself. A smile spread across her face.

"Why don't you come with me? We can have fun while Feiyou is away, and then when he comes back we'll have a party..." Doyokai whispered to Haile, stepping closing towards the girl. She felt her Correct Souls confusion behind her. Doyokai turned around and smiled a very shark-like at them, a gleam in her eyes. "Trust me on this..." she murmered to her Correct Souls.

" I can't... " Haile shook her head. "I can't go with you, I'll change."

Doyokai merely laughed. "Oh, you'll come with me." The Arch Angel lunged forward quickly and grabbed the young girl's wrist and pulled Haile towards her.

"Oh! And here's a little note for my dear brother Feiyou..." Pulling a black ribbon from her hair, she wrapped it around the doorknob. "From your precious little sister, with love," she added with a bitter tone in the words. Doyokai turned to Correct Souls.

"Let's go some where nice... where little Feiyou can come to the rescue to only meet his death."

With a laugh, Doyokai unfolded her wings and thrust herself in the sky. In her tight grip, Haile squirmed about as she screamed "No! I can't... nooo! Please! I don't want to change! I don't want to change!! PHIL!!!" Doyokai clamped a hand over her mouth.

"Shut it, brat," she whispered harshly in the young girl's ear.

"Where are we going?" one of her Correct Souls asked Doyokai. The Arch Angel of Darkness smiled wickedly.

"I don't want this kid to escape so..." Doyokai pointed at the towering skyscrapers on the horizon. "How about up there?"

Saana Lai/F/19 - Correct Soul of Kyria
--------------------
****. ****************.

Saana hovered above the whirling mass of fog, her shoulder muscles aching from the strain. Everytime she dipped a little to low, little tendrils of fog would drift up towards her like tiny grabby hands wanting to stuff her into a hungry mouth. She wasn't exactly stupid, however, and the alarms and bells in her head were going off when she saw Lyia, Genki, and Kanli disappear into the fog... and never come out. Saana had saw them moments before they went into the fog, and she was beginning to panic. In the fog she could hear the three and others... Who was the one crying?

"OI!" Saana shrieked into the fog. "CAN ANYONE HEAR ME? C'MON! SAY SOMETHING!"

There was no reply. To be more exact, they were replies... Except not to her.

"NOOO!"

"It's all my fault..."

A child sobbing...

Fear gripped Saana.

"Lyia! Genki! Kanli! Whoever! Oh, c'mon! Speak to me!" she cried, dipping lower towards the fog. Which really wasn't a great idea, Saana realized, as a tendril of fog wrapped around her leg and began to pull her down and...

You're just a stupid whore. You always were, weren't you? You never stood up for your mother... I bet you provoked him, too? You just wanted attention... I bet you liked it when he ****ed you... You ****...

Her wings faltered as Saana's eyes widened. "It's not true... it's not true..." she whispered.

Do you wanna bet?

Saana's eyes began to glaze over, with horror, fear, and doubt, as her wingstrokes became slower and she began to slowly sink into the fog...

"In the darkness we're all lost,
With nothing for us to find..."

The singing wrenched Saana back to reality.

"Let go of me, you little ****er!" the very angry Correct Soul yelled at the fog. Wrenching herself away from the fog, Saana began redoubling her wing strokes.

"I may be a ****, whore, and whatever now, but I never was one when I was younger! And where do you come up with **** like this?! I never wanted attention from that walking ******* anyway!" she shrieked at the fog. Suddenly Saana noticed that from her flapping, she was creating a little depression in the fog... And that she'd managed to blow away some of the fog, too. A smirk appeared on her face.

"Eat... wind created by rapidly flapping my wings!" Saana yelled, tripling her efforts. Sweat began to form on her brow and her muscles screamed for rest but she refused to give up...
--------

Er. Yeah. Hopefully I won't get into too much trouble? 8D;;;

[Weasel Overlord]

Doyokai smiled predatorily (is that even a word?).
"Ready for some fun?" She asked, an eerie light in her eyes.
We all made sounds of acknowledgment and spread our wings.
"Come on!" She cried, leaping out of the attic and into the night sky. I unfolded my wings and flapped them experimentally. With the first downstroke I found myself hovering slightly and, after more flapping I became airborne. Dayube looked as surprised as me, but Kayla, who seemed a little more used to her wings than us, looked quite comfortable in the air as she followed Doyokai out of the attic. I looked at Dayube and we streamed out of the gap in the floor that served as an entrance/exit.
Outside, the air had a strange edge to it. Somewhat stifling with a swirling fog that clung to everything.
"Strange" I thought, the weather was clear before out meeting. I could sense a strange, malevolent presence about us as we flew which, ordinarily would have made me feel uneasy but in the light of current happenings, it actually felt good, pleasant, even. I felt strangely at home in this fog, like I belonged there. Lost in my reverie, I almost lost sight of Doyokai and the others as they swooped ahead. I beat my wings harder and felt their responsiveness to my thoughts as I sped (is that right?) up. Looking down, I realised that we were in a familiar neighbourhood. I had passed through here earlier that day.
Suddenly Doyokai went into a dive and came to a stop outside a nice-looking house. We landed behind her, still unsure as to what she had planned, when she walked up the path to the front door. As she walked, the door opened and a small girl-child stood under the frame. She said something I couldn.t hear but it seemed to unsettle Doyokai as she started muttering to herself. I glanced at Kayla and Dayube and we moved closer to surround Doyokai at the doorway.
"Why don't you come with us" Doyokai asked the girl. Sensing our confusion, she turned and smiled. "Trust me on this one"
The girl started protesting but Doyokai grabbed onto her wrist and tugged her towards us. She fiddled with her hair and pulled free a black ribbon.
"A little note for my dear brother, Feiyou" She tied the ribbon to the doorknob, "From your precious little sister, with love" She laughed and sprang into the air, holding onto the girl-child by the wrist. The girl started to moan and scream before Doyokai's hand covered her mouth and silenced her.
"Where are going?" Dayube asked.
"I don't want this kid to escape so..how about..." She pointed, "Up there?"
With this, she flapped off towards the horizon. We followed in curiosity, keeping up with Doyokai as she flew. I enjoyed the flight, feeling the fog surround me with it's whispers and darkness. I felt right at home.

Dayube
----------------------------------
I smiled wickedly as we landed on top of one of the skyscrapers. Haile managed to squirm out of Daiyoko’s grasp.
“There’s nowhere to run,” I told her in a cold, bitter voice, “Unless you want to splat all over the pavement!” Haile stared at me.
“I know you,” she said, “You’re that man who lives down the street from us! Why are you doing this?” A smile deeper then darkness spread across my face.
“Let’s just say this world gets on my damn nerves!” Everything was quiet for a few seconds.
“Is Fieyuo even going to show up?” Kaila asked. An evil smile spread across Daiyoko’s face.
“He’ll come,” she said in a dark tone, “and when he gets here, I show that naïve fool what happens those who cross me!” I walked over to Daiyoko’s side.
“We’ll help you crush him my queen,” I said.
“And then, this world will be ours!” a bone chilling laugh erupted from her throat and I knew it, I was laughing with her.
“This is my world now!”

Zephania Rhye - Arain’s Correct Majig-amabiggy

I shrugged my shoulders and stared at Rurik’s retreating back. What’s guy gonna do? I turned back to Arain, her mouth pursed in disapproval and grinned apologetically. Arain returned my stare coldly.
“Erm, I’ll be going then?” She looked peeved so I decided to scarper while I had the chance. Plus I hadn’t seen Dak in a while and I was wondering how he was faring alone in his little catty way. I wandered out into the night and scanned the streets where first Kanli, and then Rurik had retreated. No sight of either.
“Geh..” Sighing, I turned and started walking in a random direction. As I walked I felt all those bad gotta-save-the-world thoughts evaporate in the cool night air, and was actually enjoying the walk when a scream pierced the air.
“What the...” My wings sprang out instantly, as if reacting to my emotions, and I flapped them once or twice. I was still unused to the feel of them at my back, so I made them go back into my shoulders. There wasn’t really any other way to describe what they did - they just, well, disappeared into me, leaving my shoulders tingling but with no apparent sign of them ever being there. I jogged in the direction of the scream, my inerrant good nature taking over as I slowly ran to the ‘rescue’. As I jogged, the air closed in and, like a shadow over the sun(or moon in my case), the sky darkened. A whispering followed me as I ran.
It’s your fault your mother’s dead... It remarked - I stopped, turned and blinked.
“Who’s there...?” It took a couple more seconds until I realised I did not want to know the answer. I picked up the pace again, trying to be braver than I felt.
She died because of YOU, The harsh whisper stung my ears.
“That’s not true...” I murmured, faltering.
Your fault...your’s...only your’s... It continued, Everyone hates you...
“NO!!!” I fell to my knees, and felt a rush as my wings extended again. Only this time they hit something. Something tall and human-shaped. I looked up blearily, squinting into the mist - the shape that stood in front of me was distinctly Rurik-shaped. I stood up to get a closer look and the shape in front of me extended its leg and promptly kicked me in the shins.
I cursed and dropped to one knee, and the shadowy form moved forwards as if to seize the opportunity..
“Feck..” I muttered, and the figure hovered above me hesitantly.
“Uh, Zeph?” It enquired, in a suspiciously Rurikish voice. I grinned.
“Give me a hand, you ass,”I said, and he swiftly pulled me up.
“Ok, so you care to tell me what the hell’s goin’ on here?”

*shifty eyes shifty eyes* Um,um.. PIE!!! *runs*

(RagnarokOnline x Summer) ^ Friends = MajorFun - FreeTime
Kanli (no one forgot about him, right? Right? >.> )
=====
"Curious fog," I commented, rather startled by the sudden arrival of the amorphous atmospheric apparation. It seemed to have a rather burning sensation as it engulfed us, which could be the result of the formation of sulfuric acid in the environment from which the coal plants spew. Despite its acidity, it began to seem rather frigid as the fog seemed to completely engulf not only ourselves but the range of perception (that which we can see) as well.
Genki, meanwhile, has became rather silent, which I thought was a particularly unusual way to take what I had just told him.
"Genki?" I looked behind and did not see anyone.
He must have wandered off in the fog, I thought as I walked off in the direction to try and identify him in the thick mist around us, but I could find no trail of him. I tried walking farther and farther, thinking, possibly, he may be out of the fog already or at least I'd be able to find him more easily if I was outside the range of the fog, but the more I strayed further the more unfamiliar the terrain became and the more thick the fog developed. There was a slight uneasy feeling that became apparent after a while, and this feeling was augmented quite suddenly and chillingly as mumbling words that seemed to originate from the cloud itself began chanting...
"Too selfish for others, too weak on his own..."
"Such immaturity, playing games around here." I mumbled, passing it as nothing more than a nuisance. But inside I felt an unusual chemical reaction develop within my body, one that initiated the reaction of slight shaking throughout the arms and a sense of heightened tension.
"Too selfish for others..." Remember Kaori?
Suddenly, within the mist I saw her, and myself, outside on one of the corner on the streets... She had asked me for help on her assignment... again... and this time I turned her down... but she persisted... I got irritated and pushed her aside...
And so..
She... died... a car came by the street and...
too weak on his own...
In an almost immediate response, the gravity of the earth around me was suddenly unreasonably more concentrated than earlier, and I felt myself being pushed onto the earth as if there were some unbearable burden, gasping for breath. Gasping... just like before.
You were always helpless, relying on your brother to take care of you... protect you... waste his life on you.
On a reasonable account, I tried to think up a counterargument, but I cannot help but confirm its validity... on all accounts, it was always my brother helping me during my troubles... even help during my heart transplant surgery, after the crash...
and what have you done since then? Ignored him. Left him behind. You didn't help him, or anyone else, when you had the power to... now, he has his angel, his lover, he no longer needs you... you are just selfish... weak... helpless... alone.
The pain suddenly became extremely intense, and I could not help but collapse to the ground, except that... something was pulling me?
Get back up! Genki's in danger, can't you sense it? Kaori's nagging voice was amazingly relieving for me to hear. Yet...
"And what exactly can I do? I have been nothing to my brother... no matter how much he did for me, I couldn't do anything--"
An extreme, re-awaking pain was felt-- A slap accross the face. My eyes snapped open. For a while I thought I saw the faint but bright figure of Kaori in front of my eyes.
Why can't you understand??? You can help your brother just as much as he can help you. And it is NEVER too late to repay your debts. And then she just faded away.
Amazingly, she was right... If I just fall into emotional distress, nothing will be solved. However, if I can save my brother...no, I WILL save my brother, because he is my brother. Even if I give up on myself, I cannot give up on him, because I owe him.
A faint music played.
But I won't be tricked by simple things,
I won't give up with such ease...
Now, the concentration of gravity around my area is technically impossible, as it would have either involved a sudden huge magnetic pull or an alternation in the mass of the earth's gravity. However, since it is technically illogical to weigh down the human being to such a degree, it is equally unlikely to send him flying up in the opposite direction. But since the impossible was already done, I was suddenly sent flying straight up into the air at an almost impossible to track speed. While flying, however, I was able to extend my wings out and grab hold of a random hand, whom I thought would have been my brother but in actuality was a rather scantily clothed woman that could have no resemblance to my brother at all. In any case, she seemed to have been in a struggle and apparently I was able to propel both her and I outside the range of the thick bubble of fog. From above, it didn't seem as large as it had been below...
Screw it. Dream or not, I'll just not concern myself about it, I have more important things to think about. I flew down into the cloud again.
"Hey hey! What do you think you're doing???" The lady shouted, staying afloat by her wings... (wings? oh wait, don't think about it).
"To repay my debts."

Kyria (No one forgot about her, right? Right? >.> )
=====
The gloom of the Sinic was terribly strong, but I stood firm. Considering I have the whole world to deal with, something like this can't faze me now, it just can't...
Suddenly, another sharp pain. I looked to my side and saw Ethuil crying. I nudged her (still a wolf) to try and comfort her. But she couldn't stop, the fog had gotten her. I couldn't let her become victim... part of my strength lies within her as well.
"They all died... I was playing when they all died... I'm such a bad child, no wonder nobody wants me..." She laid her head on my fur, seeking comfort, but as she did so, I myself was slowly beginning to feel her sorrow. Even the dog she had, Shadow, began wimpering ahd howling.
"Ethuil, regain your composure. Remember who you are? What you always told yourself while you were at the orphanage? Why your parents adopted you? Why they loved you?"
"I... I was..."
"Strong. You were strong in hope, courage, and love. You are a correct soul of me, Kyria, please... remember your strength, for the sake of you, me, your parents... everyone." I licked up all the tears of sorrow off of her face, as if absorbing all her fears and reinvigorating her with the power she had before. She opened her flute case and began assembling the parts, anxiously, but courageously.
"I can't give up... I must think about everyone else on this world... I want to help them!"
From the distance, I could hear the voices of my other two Souls, the fierce struggling of one in the skies and the other singing serenely and giving a sense of tranquility around the area...
I've found some thing good brings,
I've found my own cool breeze,
Ethuil quickly followed up in her own suit, synchronizing to Lyria's tune. I slowly transformed back to my goddess form and generated a trail of water as a twirled around during my transformation. the water slowly took shape and solidified into a crystal harp, with drops from the icicle-lined interior streaming down to form the strings of the instrument. Despite the gloom and depression all around, I steadily felt my strength building.
All my Correct Souls are here, I thought, smiling.

Ok, a few comments. I'm leaving for China next week, that in itself will be like a 4-5 week trip. I MIGHT post this week, but I might not *coughRagnarokOnlineIsFuncough*, so I made this heck-of-a-long-post to try and make up for it. Um. Er. And PJBW should post soon. but he procrastinates, like he usually does, yes yes.

Torran Ylldier, Correct Soul of Doyokai
---------------------

From the vantage point of the skyscraper, I could see the swirling fog surrounding the entire area. It felt great to be above all the chaos, looking down...I could see everything-including the feeble struggles of various people who I presumed to be correct souls of the other Angels. I didn't know their names, except for Feiyou, that is. When Doyokai spoke of him, it was distantly, and with a great hatred in her eyes. She really hated the guy and I wondered what he had done to make her dislike him so. Then I glanced at Doyokai, in her element is seemed, and the answer was there. She needed no reason to hate people...it's just what she does. She could no more love another person than a snowflake could survive in Hell.
I was curious about the fog, however and I voiced my curiosity to Doyokai.
"Exactly what is this fog, then?" Kayla looked me in the eyes and shrugged, so she didn't know either?
"It's a demon called a Sinic. Isn't it wonderful?" (not sure whether Doyokai would actually say 'wonderful'... it just seemed like the right word) She clasped her hands together and closed her eyes as if she was inhaling the mist. "They cause terror and panic and we're going to help them cause more!" She glanced at the girl at her feet. "Wait 'til Feiyou gets here" She chuckled "He's going to get a surprise"
At this, Dayube, who had attached himself to Doyokai and was permenently found looming over her shoulder, started laughing manically. I eyed him with unease and glanced over my shoulder at my wings. I found myself wanting to fly again. To feel the wind over my wings was an experience unlike any other.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of a figure in the air, closely followed by small group of people making their way to the building we were on.
"Doyokai!" I barked, "I think there's gonna be trouble..."
